Council Common Position 1999/206/CFSP of 15 March
1999 concerning Ethiopia and Eritrea (1) expires on 30
September 2000.

Resolution 1298 (2000) of 17 May 2000 adopted by
the United Nations Security Council stipulates that all
Member States shall prevent
the sale or supply to
Ethiopia and Eritrea of arms, related matériel and any
related technical assistance.

Exceptions to this prohibition were introduced by Reso-
lutions 1298(2000), 1312(2000) and 1320(2000).

In a Declaration published on 20 June 2000, the Euro-
pean Council welcomed the signing of an agreement on
the cessation of hostilities.

It is appropriate to continue encouraging the two coun-
tries to bring to a successful conclusion the negotiations
undertaken with a view to resolving the dispute
opposing them.

By virtue of the considerations of Article 3 of Common
Position 1999/206/CFSP, that Common Position should
be extended and amended in the light of Resolutions
1298(2000), 1312(2000) and 1320(2000),

The following Article shall be inserted in Common Position
1999/206/CFSP:

‘Article 1a

The embargo referred to in Article 1 shall not apply to:

(a) supplies of non-lethal military equipment

intended
solely for humanitarian use, as approved by the
Committee established by paragraph 8 of United
Nations Security Council Resolution 1298(2000);

(b) the sale and supply of arms and related matériel for the
sole use in Ethiopia or Eritrea of the United Nations, and

(c) the sale and supply of equipment and related matériel,
including technical assistance and training, for use solely
for demining within Ethiopia or Eritrea under
the
auspices of the United Nations Mine Action Service.’

Article 3

This Common Position shall take effect on the date of its
adoption.

Article 4

This Common Position shall be published in the Official
Journal.
